“Dennis and I went out to dinner in April and he proposed,” she said. “It’s funny because he said to me, ‘Well, did you say yes?’ And I said, ‘Well, I love you, and I can’t believe you did this, but we have to talk about some conditions and some terms and how things are going to change, issues I’ve had with partnership and consistency.’”

“He has his own world, his own friends, his own work,” Morgan told Us on Wednesday of the producer. “I’m so happy for her to have somebody like that. She’s been through so much crap. … She works very hard to support her daughter and her ex-husband, apparently.” (In text messages presented in court on March 4, Frankel claimed that she paid ex-husbandJason Hoppy’s rent.)

Morgan also spoke to Us about her castmate Ramona Singer, who came under fire for bringing up Shields’ alleged prescription drug abuse on camera during Wednesday’s episode. The 62-year-old is arguing with Luann de Lessepson the show for making comments about the “Money Can’t Buy You Class” singer’s drinking before her second stint in rehab.

“I was so mad at Ramona when she said these things … that weren’t true, she just for repeats whatever,” Morgan told Us. “She’s so unfiltered, she makes me look filtered.”

Singer apologized for her remarks about Shields ahead of Wednesday’s episode: “I cringed when I saw what I said about Dennis in tonight’s episode. It definitely wasn’t one of my finer moments. I respected and liked him very much and I sincerely apologize to his family and Bethenny for my thoughtless comments.”
